I’m an entrepreneur based in West LA who has developed an incredible service based on mobile video that will form the foundation for an unprecedented way for people to work, explore, play, and communicate. This is not another Facetime or Tango but a re-imagining of how mobile video can be used to enable completely new interactions. The prototype has been wrung out and is being refined on an elastic hosting platform that permits easy scalability, with the private beta scheduled for March. Prior to the formal launch in June, I’m seeking a CTO who can help position the company for the growth I’m anticipating. You will be employee #1. If you regret missing out on Google, Facebook, Zynga, and Twitter, here’s your chance to get even, and you don’t even have to leave LA!

The successful candidate will:

1. Have managed an organization of at least 10 engineers.
2. Thrill at accomplishing in a day what their peers would take a week to do.
3. Have played a major role in deploying a video application based on Flash Media Server comprising at least 300 simultaneous video streams (we’re going to need much, much more).
4. Describe a situation in which they have professionally failed.
5. Want to make a lasting imprint on a new company and a new industry.
6. Provide a resume subject to the constraints below..
7. Describe a situation in which they accomplished something (personal or professional) they thought was impossible.
8. Live in the Los Angeles metropolitan area. I’m planning on locating our office in Culver City-Westwood-Santa Monica-Venice.
9. Receive excellent compensation including stock options, health benefits, snacks and caffeinated beverages of their choice, and a pet-, videogame-, and RC helicopter-friendly environment.

For consideration, your response must comply with all requirements listed above. Extra points for experience with Android development.

I’m seeking the best person for the job and don’t care about your gender, age, or ethnicity, but help me preserve my lack of bias: use a gender-neutral pseudonym and omit your date and place of birth or the years during which you attended school or worked at a particular job (just include the order and duration). I realize this isn’t perfect, but let’s see how it goes.

I’ve provided all funding to date, and will continue to do so into the mid six figures. I’m a recent transplant from Silicon Valley, however, having spent my career in high-tech marketing, and have numerous connections in the VC industry, so getting a meeting when we need the big dough won’t be a problem.

Qapla’!
